Subcellular Localization
Cell junction, tight junction . Cell membrane ; Single-pass type I membrane protein . Localized at tight junctions of both epithelial and endothelial cells.
Seems to play a role in epithelial tight junction formation. Appears early in primordial forms of cell junctions and recruits PARD3. The association of the PARD6-PARD3 complex may prevent the interaction of PARD3 with JAM1, thereby preventing tight junction assembly. Plays a role in regulating monocyte transmigration involved in integrity of epithelial barrier. Involved in platelet activation. In case of orthoreovirus infection, serves as receptor for the virus (By similarity). .
Background
Junctional adhesion molecule A (JAM-A) is a protein that in humans is encoded by the F11R gene. It is mapped to 1q23.3. This gene is an immunoglobulin-like molecule that colocalizes with tight junctions in endothelium and epithelium and is also found on blood leukocytes and platelets. JAM-A plays an important role in the regulation of tight junction assembly in epithelia. In addition, it can act as a receptor for reovirus, a ligand for the integrin LFA1, involved in leukocyte transmigration, and a platelet receptor. JAM-A has a nonredundant role in controlling DC motility, trafficking to lymph nodes, and activation of specific immunity.
